Finland: Darude releases first potential Eurovision entry

The announcement took the internet by storm, and now Finnish sensation Darude has released the first potential Eurovision entry.

This year, the Finnish broadcaster decided to follow a similar national final format as last year, where the artist would be internally selected with three potential Eurovision songs revealed to the public over three weeks. This culminates in a public selection which will aim to choose the best of the three entries.

This week marks the first week of the Finnish song reveals, and the first song title is ‘Release Me.’ The song was written by Darude, Jaakko Manninen and Brandyn Burnett. The vocals for all three entries will be performed by Sebastian Rejman.
